Sculptor turns Yellow Pages into work of art

One household’s trash is another artist’s treasure for Long-Bin Che, who has carved out a new use for the Yellow Pages.

According to culture blog, Holy Kaw! artist Long-Bin Chen transforms telephone books into works of art, giving new life to the outdated telephone directories.

Phone books have copped some serious flack in an internet age. Last month, PMP CEO, Richard Allely, even predicted that the White Pages will cease to exist. “The White Pages is a sunset business – it’s not if it will cease, but when,” he told Print21. “I don’t see White Pages as something that will be around for a long time.”

Oh well, we’re sure Long-Bin has plenty of use for them. See below (images from Holy Kaw!):
